问题补充：
—Jeremy rather than his friends for the accident.
—Absolutely. He shouldn have driven after being drunk.
A. are to be blamed
B. are to blame
C. is to blame
D. is to be blamed
答案：
A. are to be blamed
B. are to blame
(答案→)C. is to blame
D. is to be blamed
解析：选C考查主谓一致。句意：“是杰里米而不是他的朋友们应对这次事故负责。”“绝对地。他本不该酒后驾车。”be to blame for ...为固定短语，意为“对……负责”，排除A、D两项；当“A rather than B ”作主语时，谓语动词应与A在“数”上保持一致，故选C。
